Radiator hose high failure rate

Yep that's what I did when I had everything apart for the head swap (timing belt failure). It has everything you need. I found the plastic T cracked, but not yet leaking. The silicone looks and feels much more durable, and since it's vulcanized as one unit there are no weak points...

I also did the boost and vacuum hoses while I was in there, the high-temp boost was pretty bad, as was the IC-charge pipe, and some of the vacuum hoses that run over the head.
Thanks for confirming!

Sounds like that's this? https://www.ipdusa.com/products/10081/121337-silicone-boost-tubing-coupler-kit-blue-p1-turbo

I bought that too.
